After researching at least 6 different Independent Living facilities in town I chose Venetian Gardens for my mother. It was not hard to choose Venetian Gardens. I found the facility ti be clean, neat, up to date, garden area and entrance supreme. The staff is exceptional, personal and very professional. It did not take very long; week only to feel the warmth and family atmosphere with activities and friendship beyond compare!

This home exceeds my expectations in every way. It is very safe, clean, comfortable, friendly and appealing. Most of this is because of the very excellent staff. They are all kind, efficient and present. It is very smart to have them have open office doors and to pour coffee at the fine meals. It means constant contact with the entire house. They create a warm, consistent atmosphere. All residents know what to expect. It fills us to be helpful to others, participate in activities and stay as well as possible. We feel like family!

After my husband passed away, I stayed in my home another year. This was not good as I was eating alone and watching TV or working crossword puzzles. Here at Venetian Gardens where I have made lots of friends and can have them to eat my meals with. I'm always playing cards or attending exercise classes. We have nice entertainments. By the way in two more months I will have lived here 10 years. Time has flown by, I'm contented.

This home exceeds my expectations in every way. It is very safe, clean, comfortable, friendly and appealing. Most of this is because of the very excellent staff. They are all kind, efficient and present. It is very smart to have them have open office doors and to pour coffee at the five meals. It means constant contact with the entire house. They create a warm consistent atmosphere. All residents know what to expect. It frees us to be helpful to others, participate in activities and stay as well as possible. We feel like family.

We had a pleasant visit, tour and discussion with the sales coordinator. This is a independent living facility and would require a "move" should a resident require an assisted living. For this reason alone, we will not be considering at this time. One feature that we were not pleased with is the "wall unit" A/C... sort of like a hotel. The unit was in the living room, but not the bedroom. Since this is a fairly new facility, we were surprised they chose this type of HVAC over central. I caution anyone reading this to not be influenced by a Star rating. This is very subjective and "your" personal visit is of the utmost importance.

Response from Venetian Gardens by Sky Active Living
January 9, 2019Hi Lisa, we are disappointed to hear that you did not have a more positive experience with us at The Venetian Gardens. Thanks for bringing this matter to our attention. We would like to get more details about this; please reach out to us at your earliest convenience at [removed].
My mother was in this facility for two years and she would still be there if the management hadn’t decided to remove the managers from the premises leaving no security at night. The administration and nurses worked with me to keep my mother there as long as possible and helped in every possible way to find solutions to her deteriorating health issues. I would like to thank the staff for their caring and exemplary kindnesses to my mother and our family. My only wish is that the facility had an assisted living wing. Thank you so much The [names removed] families
